Guidance on Home Learning 

The Home Learning Grid for Summer 2021

OUR SUGGESTIONS TO SUPPORT HOME LEARNING
Here are some suggestions of things to do whilst spending time at home with your child.
These are just suggestions, just do the best that you can.
  • When out walking as part of your daily exercise, make the most it by seeing what is around you, talking about what you see and even asking your child if they’d like to take photos. Please do remember to observe the social distancing guidelines.
  • We understand lots of you will be adapting to having children at home for longer periods or working from home and this can be challenging with children wanting your attention.
  • We suggest you don’t worry about some screen time to help with this. It is also okay for children to be bored as this can support them to be creative and imaginative.
  • Take breaks and play with your child for short periods of time.
  • Together you could start off building something or playing pretend role-play games with toys. These are great starting points that allow your children to carry on independently.
  • Remember - we are all doing the best we can in these unusual circumstances

Tips and Activities to Help Your Child with Talking

Helping Your Child with Writing
Please make sure that if you do use salt that your child is supervised at all times. We don't want children to eat the salt or to get it in their eyes.
